Sounds like its trying to boot to some device other than your hard disk.  Check
the boot order in the bios settings.  If you have your floppy drive or cd drive
above the hard drive it will try to boot to them first, but should only do so
if you have a disk in them. So make sure there is no disk in the cd or floppy
drive, and/or change the boot order to your hard drive first.
